Riyadh (Debriefer) The Arab coalition intercepted two Houthi drones en route to Saudi lands on Saturday, the Saudi-led coalition said late on Saturday.
Saudi air defenses intercepted and destroyed two bomb-laden drones fired by the Houthi group towards the Saudi southern area, the coalition said in a statement carried by the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).
The coalition takes all operational measures needed to protect civilians and civilian objects from hostile attacks, according to the statement.
Late on Friday, the coalition said its forces foiled a Houthi attack with a booby-trapped drone heading for Jizan.
Saudi Arabia has been leading a military coalition in Yemen since 26 March 2015, in support of forces loyal to President Hadi to retake areas controlled by the Iranian-backed Houthi group.
The group often targets the Kingdom with ballistic missiles and explosive drones, which the Arab coalition thwarts.
